The Rock: 'Obama should play me in biopic'

The Rock has revealed that he would want President Barack Obama to play him in a biopic of his life.

Speaking to Moviefone, the former WWE star suggested that the Democratic leader has the perfect qualities to portray him on the big screen.

"I hear that we sound alike all the time," he said. "I've gotten to know him and he's a big time athlete and loves athletics, so I'm sure he could bulk up.

"All the comparisons have been such an honor - how cool! We make a hell of a pair."

The actor, real name Dwayne Johnson, added that he had spent some time chatting with the President before the election.

"He did tell me that I was one of Michelle Obama's favorite actors," he confessed. "We also talked about the importance of making family movies - he was telling me that [his daughters] were big fans of The Game Plan."
